Presents the fundamentals of instrument and revenue metering in utilities and industry
Upon completion participants will be familiar with:
What is Electric Power
AC & DC Power
Voltage, Current, & Power Vectors (Phasors)
Capacitive & Inductive Loads
Real, Reactive & Apparent Power (Watts, Vars, VA)
The Dynamometer Wattmeter
The Energy Meter
Single-Phase Metering
Instrument Transformers
(Current & Voltage CT's & PT's)
3-Wire, Single-Phase Metering
Polyphase Energy Meters
3-Wire, Single-Phase Metering with CT's & PT's
Metering a 3 Phase 4 Wire Load ("Y" Connected)
Metering a 3 Phase 3 Wire Load (Delta Connected)
Measurement Canada Standards
Blondel’s Theorem
Phase & Line Relationship
Starting with the fundamental definition of “What is Electric Power?” and going on to AC & DC Power measurement, instruments and standard practices in the industry.
Voltage, Current, & Power are then modeled with the use of Vectors (Phasors) and how these then react when applied to Capacitive & Inductive Loads.
Real, Reactive & Apparent Power (Watts, Vars, VA) are developed from here and then the fundamental tools of measurement; the Dynamometer Wattmeter and Energy Meter are examined.
Single-Phase Metering and Polyphase Energy Metering along with the use of Instrument Transformers (Current & Voltage CT's & PT's) are studied:
3-Wire, Single-Phase Metering
3-Wire, Single-Phase Metering with CT's & PT's
Metering a 3 Phase 4 Wire Load ("Y" Connected)
Metering a 3 Phase 3 Wire Load (Delta Connected)
Using Measurement Canada Standards.
